Printing Portals and Sub-Summary

[luiscovar]

I hope this is in the correct section.

 

Hello, I am having trouble printing portals which are in sub-summary fields. I have a contact database where each person input their information in different tables. For example, medicine information, their emergency contacts, their Allergies, their physician information. All in different tables. What I'm trying to do is print it out. The first image attached is what it looks in layout mode, 2nd picture is in browse mode, 3rd is in preview mode(which is how it should look when it prints), 4th picture is how it actually prints. It is only printing the header. I am sorting all the sub-summaries by the contact_ID which every table has.

You're not really summarizing anything, so why not try and put the portals into the body part?

 

Having said that, a more flexible approach would be to create lists of related items: prepare this by creating a calculated line in each of the info tables (e.g. in the Medicines table a field cSummaryLine might be defined as calc field, type text, like so:

 

Substitute ( List ( medicine ; dosage ; frequency ; location ) ; ¶ ; Char(9) )

 

Then in your contacts table add a calc field, type text, as cListMedicines = List ( medicines::cSummaryLine )

 

Place that onto your layout, add tab stops as necessary to bring it into a tabular format, and set it to slide.

 

Repeat for the other tables.
